Overview
The MD2 Elantra lives alongside the MD, runs the same model range (Active, Elite and Premium), continues the improvements, including handling, interior space/ packaging, fuel economy and emissions, with a few extra niceties. The all-alloy 1.8 petrol four delivers 110kW/178Nm, 6.6Litres/100km and CO2 emissions are 158g/km. The styling gives the sedan a 'hatch' look with a bonus in drag co-efficient over rivals Holden Cruze, Mazda3 and Toyota Corolla sedans. The five ANCAP star safety has been boosted with the new "Vehicle Stability Management" system taking control of all the safety systems (including varying steering weight) during an emergency.
